i IMPRVED EGG-BEATEE.

TQ ALL WHOM IT kMAY. CON CERN .il

Be it known that I, WILLIAM H. PEIRCE, oi' Bangox-,fin the'cpunty of Penobscot, and State of Meine, have invented e new and-useful Egg-Reuter; and I do 'hereby declare thetthe folloiving is o full, clear, and fexect description ofits construction end operation, reference being had to the d'rawings'eccompanying this specification, whichdrawings represent .my invention in perspective, as being used in ebowl, a. 'part of whieliis broken -The nature of my invention consists in en egg-beter, formedof wire, bent or coiled s pirally in the form of a bell, to the apex-of 'which e. hnndleie attached forvconvenience of using.

lo enable others skilled in the art to make andns'e muy invention, Iivill proceed to describe its construction and operation. v

In the drawings,4 A -represents the coiled., spiral, bell-shaped portion of the beater, which I usually form of' tinned Wire, to prevent corrosion. 'This bel l sh`apedpart "may be mede of any required size or form, anrlthe lower end of the wire forming the bell,- I solder tothe next wire above it, B is the handle, usually made of Wood, and inserted firmly in the nppencoils oi' the bellfpart A. a isle. ring, secured tothe handle B, for the purpose of hanging up the heuntei` when not in use. C is' `the botvl, Vin thehottom of which the broken 'eggrb is dropped, to .heut which', the bezitei' is 'placed in the' position shown, when` by means of handle B, the bellportion is rapidly raisedand depressed.' At eachdepression, all the coils below. the l'ower end of the handle are brought dat upon the bottom of the howl, the coils 'shutting or closing onevwithin the other, end the egg isorapidly forced out between' them, and, upon the-elevation of the wires to their former shz1pe,the egg returns to its former position in thecentre of. the howl. Thus, lbythe constant and active rushing in and ont of the egg between the coils1 as well as the direct downward ztctionof the beater, it is rupi'dly'anll with vease reduced to that foatny condition which all good cooks aspire to.

Among the merits of my invention are'thes'e it is less expensive than any other, easier to cleanse after using, less-liable to get out of repair, und inelectiveness, both in time and results, is lequal to any other.

What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, isf-4 I An egg-beater, lconstructed of a. cone of vcoiled wire, Aleft free to move vertclly as a. spring, substantially in manner es 4described end shown. l
